Practical trunks, lovely maroon colour

Yes, I recommend this

These swimming shorts are well made and a comfortable fit. They wash well and dry quickly. Nice and plain, extra colours each year and not too short. Used for year round swimming.

Tight around the thigh

No, I don't recommend this

The swim shorts were a good fit until I sat down. When sitting the hem of the legs was tight around the thighs and not at all comfortable. These were clearly made for a skinny person, not a well-muscled one.

Thinking of dipping your toe - dive in

Yes, I recommend this

great shorts, if you swim regularly opt for the short (length) version - as they suggest quick dry and great colour. Perhaps slightly on the large size at the waist

Not as advertised

No, I don't recommend this

The shorts are okay not bright green as advertised or anything like the online picture but a rather dull green, so a bit disappointing. I know pictures can be deceiving but these are way off.

Impressive

Yes, I recommend this

These are made of a comfortable yet quick drying fabric. The small loop on the outside at the rear so that they can be hung on a hook when changing is a nice addition.

Good shorts for the money.

Yes, I recommend this

The liner is smaller than the shorts. The shorts are finer, the liner not so much. I may have to remove it.
